Outstanding work! I was kept updated and even got my vehicle back earlier than expected and nicer than I left it! Highly recommend Shadow Lake Collision Center.

Customer Service

They did great work, got it done sooner than expected, cleaned my car, and even found a ring my daughter had lost and left it in the cupholder. I highly recommend them.

My Experience

Thank you for all the communication during my repair. Steve is GREAT! Also, thank you for getting me to and from your shop. I greatly appreciate the rides.

My Experience

Car delivered on time and looks great!

My Experience

The only thing I really didn't care for was your automated update system that sent me text messages stating things like "we're halfway done," "we're nearing completion," Etc. And then come to find out it's just all automated from the assumptions when the work was first started. I would just as soon get no updates or a text/call when it was really nearing completion or halfway done, etc. Each time I got a text, I thought it really meant something, which it really didn't. Thank you!

This is the second time I've responded!? Just didn't appreciate the automated txt message updates, that I found out were just scheduled by the me it was brought in and anticipated finish from when it first went in. The last one especially that said we're nearing completion, so I called in about what that meant as we were trying to coordinate with the rental car place and was told that really didn't mean much as it was just scheduled automatically from the initial completion date anticipated. I would rather not hear anything, vs an automated text message and cause multiple calls in and return calls.

Magnanimous! My experience with Shadow Lake Collision Center could not have been more satisfying. The interactions I had with Steve and Kathy were my first indication I made the right selection. They seemed to be seamlessly integrated with my insurance company and rental car agency unburdening me from some of the busy work. As to the quality of work, I have nothing but praise for the visual magic that they did to restore my car. Great company that I highly endorse.
